"This place has always been very quiet, giving a particularly relaxing feeling. It’s the epito of the modern slow lifestyle," Shen Yi said.
Ye Wanwan looked back at Shen Yi. "What? Has our Mr. Shen had enough of the busy life in the big city?"
"As long as you’re with , it’s all the sa," Shen Yi said seriously, looking at Ye Wanwan.
If Ye Wanwan wasn’t there, no matter what kind of life it was, he wouldn’t want it.
"Then why did you choose this place?" Ye Wanwan asked casually as she started to unpack her suitcase.
Shen Yi watched Ye Wanwan’s movents and said unhurriedly, "I wanted to be with you, the kind without any disturbances from anyone else."
The area was quiet, with few people around. He and Ye Wanwan could leisurely enjoy their world for two, and besides, he had other plans.
Ye Wanwan looked up at Shen Yi, her cheeks slightly flushed, a bit embarrassed.
But the next mont, she was pulled up by Shen Yi, who slightly bent down, took her arm, and before she could react, sealed her lips with a kiss.
Ye Wanwan had a montary reflex to resist Shen Yi, but then she rembered Zhouzhou wasn’t here; it was a vacation just for the two of them!
So after realizing this, Ye Wanwan clumsily reciprocated Shen Yi’s kiss.

Half an hour later, Butler Tang ca to knock on the door to remind them that dinner was ready.
By then, Shen Yi and Ye Wanwan had already neatly packed their luggage, and hearing the knock, Shen Yi went to open the door. "Thank you, Grandpa Tang. We’ll be right there."
The sky outside had gradually darkened, and although it was June and many places were starting to heat up, a cool breeze was still blowing here.
Ye Wanwan said, "Shall we go for a walk after dinner?"
After all, she had never been to this place before and was curious about everything around her, and the weather was so nice that it was a perfect ti for a stroll.
"Alright," Shen Yi agreed, looking at Ye Wanwan tenderly.
At dinner, Shen Yi asked Butler Tang to sit down and eat with them, but Butler Tang firmly declined, "It’s not proper to eat with the owners of the house."
Shen Yi wanted to say it didn’t matter, as Butler Tang had been guarding this place for many years and was already part of the family.
But before Shen Yi could say anything, it was as if Butler Tang had guessed his thoughts and continued, "We can’t break the rules."
Shen Yi knew that in Tang’s ti, being a butler wasn’t just a job to support the family; Tang’s ancestors had signed servitude contracts for generations.
Even though such terms didn’t exist by the ti it ca to Butler Tang, he still held so deeply ingrained beliefs.
Shen Yi didn’t say much more and had dinner with Ye Wanwan.
After dinner, when Ye Wanwan ca out, she noticed that the courtyard was lit up, or to be exact, the lanterns hanging in the courtyard were all shining.
Not like the decorative lanterns sold outside, but old-fashioned lanterns with candles inside, which swayed with the breeze.
When Ye Wanwan and Shen Yi ca out of the house, they indeed found the streets sparsely populated, mostly by elderly people. There were more people across the river where the shops were.
"Let’s go and have a look around," Shen Yi said, taking Ye Wanwan’s hand and stepping forward.
